Re: [amsat-bb] Does this IC-970 look familiar????

I agree with Woody,

If the buyer of the first auction was re-selling it, he most likely 
wouldn't be in a different country and wouldn't be using a different ID 
that had no bidding history.  In the absence of additional information 
about the seller I'd stay away from this one.
